My daughter (age 27) and I (61) did the Amsterdam to Bruges bike/barge trip in May 2017. We loved every minute of it. The Magnifique is a beautiful barge with extremely comfortable beds, the food was good and plentiful and our guide Arie was fantastic. It’s very easy to follow the bike maps provided if you want to strike out on your own. We rented e-bikes because we had heard that the headwinds in Holland and Belgium can be strong (true) and we loved them. There was a good mix of ages on the barge – from 20s to 70s with the majority in their 40s and 50s. I would highly recommend this trip and will book with Boat Bike Tours in the future. Their website was easy to use and they promptly answered all email enquiries we had prior to the trip.
Thank you very much for writing this review. Great to hear you loved the Amsterdam to Bruges Tour on board the Magnifique. Thank you for giving us a perfect rating and for recommending this tour and our company to other travelers. We hope to welcome you again!

We loved the tour. The coziness of the smaller boat was great and we got to know many people from all over. The captain and cook were the best. Would definitely do something like this again.
Thank you very much for your feedback on the cycling cruise Green Heart of Holland on board the Jelmar. We are glad you had a great time. We always have a very international group aboard. We hope to welcome you on one of our other tours.

We had a great week on the M.S. Bordeaux. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The meals were very good-especially after biking all day. The bikes were sturdy and worked well for us. The only issue was the wifi could not handle all the guests so communication was spotty. Also some of wineries required reservation which would have been helpful to know ahead of time.. We would absolutely do this again.
Thank you very much for your positive review about the Boat and Bike Tour in France, the Bordeaux region. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to evaluate changes and make improvements. Hope to welcome you again!

We loved the Boat Bike tour of Bruges, Belgium to Amsterdam, Netherlands. The tour leader Jzak was superb. He kept up a steady but comfortable pace. He was very knowledgeable about the places we visited and toured through. The entire crew on the Fluvius were great. Very helpful and cordial. I enjoyed everything about it!
Thank you very much for your feedback on the cycling cruise from Bruges to Amsterdam on board the Fluvius. We will forward your compliments to the crew and tour leader and we hope to welcome you again!

Did you know there is new Magnifique - the Magnifique III - under construction? This barge will be ready to set off on her first journey in just a few months' time. The Magnifique III will be sailing between Amsterdam and Bruges but will also be sailing our new tour "The Best of Holland".

It was a wonderful trip despite realisation that the cycling expected of the trip was beyond what w could manage. After one cycling journey, it was boat and bus/train instead and we saw as much without the stress of cycling, We lacked confidence cycling with water (canals) on one side and traffic on the other and also was not competent on the bike which we found rather heavy as we were small built. But no regrets joining this trip still because we met many interesting people passionate about cycling and we could see that they enjoyed every journey thoroughly! The tour leaders were very helpful and provided suggestions for alternatives at each place the boat stopped. The crew were fantastic and we enjoyed every meal! Kudos to the chef, service staff and all the people behind the scene who made our trip memorable!
Thank you for reviewing our Grand Tour of Holland on board the Angela Esmee. This tour is classified as 'easy', because most of the way is over flat paths, so suitable for all cyclists, from very experienced to beginners and recreational cyclists with a basic level of fitness. We are really sorry to hear you were not confident enough to cycle this tour, but gladly you found a way together with the tour leader and crew to make this a wonderful and memorable trip.
